Were there any rock art caves nearby.? In our neck of the woods, we have only found them growing close to the caves

That is an interesting bit of info

Interesting

No caves, but growing in a farm yard, enlarged map! So still in association with humans. Does anyone know if this is rated as alien or indigenous? Not endemic obviously, but is it officially rated as indigenous? Or not?

Location

Location updated. This was found at a cement dam some distance from the farm yard.

I have found this at other water installations on the farm as well. See here.
